Michael, The trainers that I've talked with are eager to use the series in their training. But because the film series is a unique approach to the material, none of the insurance companies that I've talked with so far know how to write a policy.
Debbie, If I was an experienced LE trainer, I could probably get a professional policy to cover me. Even though I'm working with several LE training professionals, that issue seems to be part of the p...
